From: Andrii Nakryiko <andriin@xxxxxx> [ Upstream commit d121e1d34b72c4975ff0340901d926c0aaf98174 ] When finding target type candidates, ignore forward declarations, functions, and other named types of incompatible kind. Not doing this can cause false errors. See [0] for one such case (due to struct pt_regs forward declaration).
